Rainwater Harvesting Products

Much of the water used in commercial and public buildings is for non-potable applications such as toilet flushing, irrigation and evaporative cooling. Much of this could be provided by harvested rainwater. Rainwater Harvesting systems often have short payback periods and can help reduce reliance on mains water for use within non-potable applications and lower running costs, a focus of many businesses throughout the UK.

Benefits of this system include: easy to install and simple to maintain, ‘Fit and Forget’ system, ensuring an automatic supply of harvested rainwater and a shallow dig design making the system easy and affordable to install.

The Raintrap system is an economical rainwater harvesting system suitable for domestic and commercial applications.
